New to lasers

[pilot.reaux]

I recently started researching lasers and I'm see all different amounts of power and wavelengths. Does the wattage or wavelength matter more for how powerful the laser is / how much it can burn?

Yes.

Actually, the power is all that determines the ability to burn. Wavelength has little if anything to do with it.
